When the RPMS of the two gears your moving between sort of match up, its kind of hard to explain, i used to do this on my brothers hatch SI. And easy way to find it is cruise in 3rd and just apply a little pull back on the shifter, it will slide out of 3rd, and just a slight pull towards 4th, and it should find its way in, if you hear grinding STOP!!!! sorry i know that was a terrible explaination...

I brake boost my superduty to 35psi in 4wheel drive and let her go off the line, it twists and growns like something going to explode but I think it loves it. It launchs ------- hard for a one ton truck, still spins the tires if it dosn't hook though

My brother and I have been saying that for years from back when he got a Grand National, It just comes w/ owning a turbo car

My CRX see's nice 5500rpm 3rd gear break-boosting before freeway run's often. It's how we do it in the 360.
